  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x
  • Category: Pizza
  • Method: Baked
  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup plus 1 Tablespoon white whole wheat flour (or regular whole wheat)
  • 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 6 Tablespoons water
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon honey
  • For baking: avocado oil (or other oil with high smoke point)

Instructions

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, garlic, Italian Seasoning, salt, and baking powder. Add the water, oil, and honey  and stir until the dough comes together. Switch to your hands and knead the dough until smooth and supple, about 5 minutes. Divide the dough into two equal pieces, shape each one into a round disk, cover with a cloth, and let rest for 30 minutes.
  2. While waiting for the dough to rest, oil a cast iron pan with avocado oil. Set the pan in the oven and set the oven temperature to 450 F. Let the pan set in the hot oven for at least 10 minutes after the oven is heated to get good and hot.
  3. When the dough is ready, on a floured surface, roll out one of the crusts into a 9-10 inch circle. 
  4. Set one pizza crust in the hot pan and prick with a fork a few times. Bake for about 8 minutes or until crisp and brown on the bottom and a little browned on top as well. Flip the crust over.
  5. Top with sauce, cheese and toppings and set back in the oven for about 8 – 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted, bubbly and browned in a few spots. Cut into slices and enjoy!
  6. Repeat with the other crust, or wrap the crust in plastic wrap and store in the fridge for later.

Notes

Premade crust will last for at least a week in the fridge or you can freeze it for up to a month. For easier rolling, let the dough warm up at room temp before rolling it out.
